House Of Montdidier
The House of Montdidier was a medieval French noble house which ruled as count of Montdidier, Dammartin and Roucy. Its earliest definite member of the family was a certain Hilduin, who died before 956 and was known as ''comte de Montdidier''. The oldest known member of the family of some Montdidier is a Hilduin who died before 956 and was Count Montdidier. A close relative, also named Hilduin, perhaps his son, married Hersende, Lady of Ramerupt and Arcis-sur-Aube. Assumptions were exposed to clarify and complete the origin of the family, but proved unfounded or not usable. Thus: The Manasses name, carried by a son and grandson of Hilduin and Hersende returns home from Rethel, but the relationship between the two families is not known more precisely. There is also the tenth century Manasses, father of Gilbert, count of Chalon. Count Luçay in his book Le comté de Clermont en Beauvaisis, étude pour servir à son histoire (1878), stated that the second Manasses was probably a b ...

Hilduin II, Count Of Arcis-sur-Aube
Hilduin II (d. after 993), Count of Arcis-sur-Aube, Seigneur de Ramerupt, was the nephew or son of Hilduin I, Count of Montdidier. His mother was Hersende, a noble lady who was either Hilduin I's wife or sister or the spouse of Hilduin I's unnamed brother. Hilduin II was a member of the House of Montdidier. Virtually nothing is known about Hilduin II other than an obscure reference in the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines. He reportedly made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem in 992 during a rare time of peace there following the death of conquering general Jawhar al-Siqilli. He apparently married, but the name of his wife is unknown. He and his wife had two children: * Hilduin III, Count of Montdidier and Seigneur de Ramerupt * Manasses, Count of Dammartin (sometimes referred to as Calvus Manassas), married Constance, daughter of Robert II, King of France.

Renaud I, Count Of Soissons
Renaud I, Count of Soissons (985–1057) was Grand Master of the Hotel de France. He died at a siege of the tower of Soissons. His title passed to his daughter Adelaide. Biography Renaud I was the son of Guy I, Count of Soissons, and his wife Adelaide. The ''Acta Sanctorum'' commentary of the life of Saint Simon de Valois (based on a manuscript of the abbey of Saint-Claude) identifies both Renaud and his father. Renaud was Grand Master of the Hotel de France. Renaud died in the siege of the tower of Soissons, presumably the Soissons Cathedral, in 1057. It is unclear as to the circumstances of this siege. It is not clear when Renaud's son Guy became Count of Soissons, but it was apparently some time before 1057 when they both died in the siege of Soissons. Upon their death, Renaud's daughter Adelaide became the Countess of Soissons. Family Renaud married Lessaline de Dammartin, the widow of Hilduin III, Count of Montdidier. They had two children: * Guy II, Count of Soissons * Ad ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Counts Of Montdidier
Count (feminine: countess) is a historical title of nobility in certain European countries, varying in relative status, generally of middling rank in the hierarchy of nobility. Pine, L. G. ''Titles: How the King Became His Majesty''. New York: Barnes & Noble, 1992. p. 73. . The etymologically related English term "county" denoted the territories associated with the countship. Definition The word ''count'' came into English from the French ''comte'', itself from Latin ''comes''—in its accusative ''comitem''—meaning “companion”, and later “companion of the emperor, delegate of the emperor”. The adjective form of the word is "comital". The British and Irish equivalent is an earl (whose wife is a "countess", for lack of an English term). In the late Roman Empire, the Latin title ''comes'' denoted the high rank of various courtiers and provincial officials, either military or administrative: before Anthemius became emperor in the West in 467, he was a military ''comes' ...
